    Someone mentioned that they receive email notifications and I don't dispute that (I also receive notifications).

    But IMHO those emails just get marked as spam and are completely ignored

    How can anyone push to "follow" the process on reporting cheaters when the current recommendation is to report to someone on the forum that hasn't been active since March 2021

    And even the old hasn't been active since August 2022

    It would be really amazing to have someone from CG to actually drop in the thread and give people some light on this 🤷🏻‍♂️ or maybe even post their own thread.

    That would be great, but their lawyers probably won't let them. That or the main decision maker at CG, whoever that is, since they barely let anyone at CG talk to players as it is. I'm leaning towards the decision maker since we barely get any communication and that's been going on for months. (again)
  • Also, I face a suspected cheater almost every GAC. My guess is about 20% of the players cheat. Most do it just enough to seem reasonable.

    I've yet to run into one, I guess I've been lucky hitting 80% so far.

    Actually our discord team is looking through your recent history, can you point to these cheaters? We can't find them.

  • how do we report cheating? other than in-game with the mute/report button?

    FYI losing a match does not equal the opponent cheating. They may just be better at the game than you.
  • Its incredibly frustrating if you've ever come up against it. Would be nice to see some official response and some hard line actions taken. You'd think they'd be concerned for monetary reasons that paying players may quit due to frustration because it doesn't matter how much you may spend you can still be beaten by a cheater with G5 toons

    If you want to report a potential cheater,
    please send a message to @CG_Leviathan with details on why you think someone is cheating and your ally code plus the ally code and name of the suspected cheater.

    That's an odd thing to say, I just wanted to see the cheaters you keep facing. Others are having no problems showing blatant cheating against them.

    enforcing their own TOS…I think that is a problem for everyone including EA.

    You have misinterpreted the TOS. They use the word "may" repetitively in their EULA in the section that describes enforcement. See below. The use of the word may is there to give them the prerogative to enforce as they see fit. It's not that they aren't enforcing their ToS. They are just exercising them in a way you don't like.
  • played my first obvious cheater last round in gac and it's incredibly frustrating when you get a very solid score (2070ish), and lose to a guy with a 2090 score who had max health/protection every battle (even in ships, where he also used no reinforcements in any battle lol)

    i'm primarily ftp (spend some every holiday season), so crystal income is super important to me.

    I don't think they need another lawyer, even a free one. They pay enough money to lawyers to write their ToS in whatever way gives them escape to ignore their own policies, or strictly enforce them. It is a common thing for gaming companies to state such lawyerly policies. It is basically only as meaningful as they want it to be on any given day.

    At the same time, CG has made the claim they have a zero tolerance policy towards cheaters. But, they are doing the same lawyerly wriggling as you're helping defend EA doing. Zero tolerance doesn't actually mean zero tolerance, it means "if we feel like doing something about it, we will...."
